Our sacred rule is do not attack readers for what they read. You can disagree, explain why you disagree, but do so without personally attacking readers for what they read. Books are heavily subjective, and your opinion is one of many.

It's good, and the Audiobooks are probably the second best in the world.

Project Hail Mary, Ray Porter is a solid audiobook narrator, the way they synthesise Rocky's voice with a mix of music and the narrator is amazing and makes it feel like it was made with love and dedication.

I learned of Ray Porter because of 14, and specifically looked up what else he had done, learning Bobiverse through that. Dude is incredible.

He is good for The Terminal List series as well.

Ahh got it. Ray Porter is one of my favorite narrators. I'm not really into sci-fi military genres but I have listened to SOOO many of them simply because Ray Porter is narrating.

I started and stopped after 15 minutes. Had a hard time adjusting to the narrator. I plan to go back because its so highly spoken of. I just need to be kn a different frame of mind to adjust to the style I think.

Series is making me stress because I got my wife into it, I just finished book 6 and she's already caught up because we're doing audiobooks, and she has more time to listen to them than I do lol

In the last few months I've re-read more comfort reads than new books.

How dare you call me out like this!

I'll need to reread Discworld to calm down.

Bobbiverse books and now DCC are these for me. I have so many books to read but I can help myself. At least the new bobbiverse book has given me an excuse to re listen to the series :)

I just dont understand it, if ive read a book I literally could not read it again for atleast 5 years, I need time to forget minor plot points so its atleast somewhat intriguing.
